Ahead of Tuesday’s WNBA matchup between the Las Vegas Aces and the Seattle Storm, Nika Muhl and Jewell Loyd turned the tunnel into a runway, each sporting a distinct, personalized look as part of Smartwater’s collaboration with the WNBA. The initiative brings together athletes and stylists to create eye-catching ensembles that fuse performance with personal style, with Smartwater serving as the ultimate accessory.
Muhl, the point guard for the Seattle Storm, donned a loose-fitting gray pantsuit, personalized by a graffiti-inspired print in shades of blue, orange and red. The blazer, buttoned for a sleek silhouette, added a touch of athletic-inspired edge, while her choice of metallic pointed-toe pumps brought an elevated finish. The Croatian player completed her look with a pair of rectangular sunglasses, enhancing her outfit’s modern edge.

Stylist Brittany Hampton who works with other athletes including Paige Bueckers, Sloane Stephens, Russell Westbrook and Victor Cruz worked closely with Muhl to curate the ensemble, blending comfort and style in a way that reflects Muhl’s on-court energy.
Jewell Loyd, known for her on-court dominance, took a more relaxed approach to her tunnel walk attire. The Seattle Storm shooting guard opted for a beige utility vest, layered over a black T-shirt. Paired with camouflage cargo pants and Nike Dunk sneakers, Loyd’s look balanced rugged functionality with a casual streetwear aesthetic. The combination showcased her personal style, embracing both practicality and a cool, laid-back vibe.
